The problem
Your policies are written down, your tenant does not read them
Most organizations have clear rules for Microsoft 365: who may share externally, which workspaces need an owner, who keeps a Copilot license. What is missing is a way to hold a live estate of thousands of workspaces, apps and agents against those rules, so the gap between policy and reality surfaces when an auditor asks, not before.
Policies live in documents
The rules exist in a wiki or a PDF, but nothing checks the tenant against them day to day, so violations accumulate silently.
Evidence is built by hand
When an audit or a security review asks who can reach what, teams export lists and assemble the answer in spreadsheets.
Every service reports differently
Teams, SharePoint, Exchange, Entra ID and Power Platform each have their own admin center, and none shows where you stand overall.
AI raises the stakes
Copilot and agents act on whatever the tenant lets them reach, so an unenforced sharing rule can end up in an AI answer.
One engine that checks your whole estate
Rencore Governance turns your written rules into policies that run continuously: it inventories every workspace, app, automation and agent across Microsoft 365, checks each object against the policies you switch on, and routes every violation to an accountable owner, with the evidence exportable at any point.
Flexible Policy Templates
Choose from over 100 fully customizable Policy templates built from best practices around the most requested use cases. Quick start your governance operation by simply switching them “on” or “off”.
Robust Policy Builder
Customize any template or add your own Policy with our granular Policy builder. Report on any data Object or relation across multiple services.
Dynamic Compliance Tracking
Get an instant overview of your compliance status with our Policy overview. See violations per service, category, and Compliance status over time.
All your Microsoft 365 connectors in one place
Rencore Governance connects to a wide range of Microsoft 365 services, including Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, Entra ID, Exchange, Viva Engage, and Power Platform. Receive a full Microsoft 365 services inventory within minutes.

Evidence you can hand to an auditor
Export the inventory, violations and trends as reports, scheduled or on demand. When the next audit request comes, the answer is a document you already have, not a project.
One engine, four regulations
The policies you run and the evidence you export here are the same mechanics behind the EU regulations that reach your Microsoft estate:
- GDPR: prove control of the personal data your tenant and your AI can reach
- EU AI Act: inventory and govern Copilot and every AI agent
- DORA: ICT risk control and evidence for financial entities
- NIS2: risk management measures for essential and important entities
No tool makes you compliant on its own: that judgement stays with your organization and its auditors, on the evidence.
Trusted by security, IT, and platform leaders
Security, IT, and platform leaders use Rencore to see their Microsoft estate, cut cost and risk, and roll out Copilot and agents on a governed foundation.
Frequently asked questions
How does compliance checking work in Rencore Governance?
The compliance engine checks every object in your inventory against the policies you switch on, and flags each violation it finds. You then resolve flagged violations with built-in actions and automations, rather than exporting a list and chasing it by hand.
How many policy templates are there?
Over 100 fully customizable policy templates, built from best practices around the most requested use cases. Switch a template on or off, customize it, or build your own in the policy builder over any data Object or relation across multiple services.
How does Rencore Governance work alongside Microsoft Purview?
Rencore Governance complements and extends Microsoft's own controls rather than standing in for them. Purview classifies and protects data. Rencore inventories the objects around it, checks them against the policies you switch on, and routes the fix to the owner, so the controls you have configured in Microsoft hold up across the estate.
What can I track over time?
Violations per service and per category, and your compliance status over time, across security posture, service adoption, platform costs and operations.
What can I hand to an auditor?
Reports over the inventory, the violations per policy and the trend over time, scheduled or on demand. When an auditor asks who can reach what, the answer is a document you already have, not a screenshot hunt.
Does this cover GDPR, the EU AI Act, DORA or NIS2?
The same engine backs all four: the policies check your estate continuously and the reports carry the evidence. The dedicated pages for GDPR, the EU AI Act, DORA and NIS2 map each regulation to the Microsoft estate. No tool makes you compliant on its own; that judgement stays with your organization and its auditors.
What makes maintaining data residency controls in Microsoft 365 so complex?
Where Microsoft 365 data at rest sits follows the tenant's Default Geography, which is set at sign-up, so the baseline is simple. The complexity comes from the layers added on top. Multi-Geo, a separate add-on, places individual users, mailboxes and sites in satellite geographies, and Advanced Data Residency is a tenant-level add-on with its own commitments, so the answer can differ per tenant and per workspace. Several tenants, for example after an acquisition, can each have a different Default Geography. Then come the services, connected third-party apps and copies your own users export, which fall outside the core data residency commitments. Control means knowing each tenant's geography, which users and sites sit elsewhere and which connected services and apps hold copies, and checking that list on a schedule instead of once.
What causes visibility problems with compliance and security in Microsoft 365?
Usually three causes. The data is scattered: Teams, SharePoint, Exchange, Entra and Power Platform each report only on themselves, so no report shows who owns a workspace, who can reach it and which policy it breaks. There is no time axis: settings are checked when someone asks, not continuously, so a violation from last month cannot be reconstructed. And ownership is missing: security and compliance see the finding, but the owner of the workspace never hears about it. Purview and Entra classify, protect and manage identities; what you need in addition is an inventory across services, policies that check it continuously, and reports that show the trend.
How do unmanaged Microsoft 365 collaboration spaces increase audit preparation effort?
An auditor's questions are always the same: who owns this workspace, who can access it, why does it exist and what happened to it when the project ended. For a managed workspace the answers sit in one record. For an unmanaged one, with no owner, no recorded purpose and no review date, each answer is a manual search across Teams, SharePoint, Entra groups and exports, and the evidence ends up as screenshots that are stale by the time the audit starts. The effort shrinks when every workspace has a named owner from creation, an owner review at a set interval, archiving once it goes inactive and a log of each decision, so audit preparation means exporting what already exists instead of reconstructing it.
